At the Baghdad Highway checkpoint, three buses are tightly guarded, waiting for the future security company to take over the protection.

From Baghdad to the exit of the Marin Town Expressway, it is only 40 kilometers, and at a normal speed, it only takes half an hour to enter Marin Town.

It seems that there is still half an hour to go, but the waiting time is a bit long.

The group of reporters had been at the checkpoint at the highway intersection for a full hour, and had not yet waited for the convoy of the future security company.

And such an eye-catching three buses parked in the checkpoint, and there are many vehicles coming and going, is really too attention-grabbing.

This is causing increasing pressure on the security forces in Baghdad, who are responsible for the safety of these journalists.

Fortunately, there is also an IDF armoured company at the junction carrying out normal inspections.

There is also an armored regiment stationed nearby, so even if anyone wants to deal with these journalists, it is relatively safe.

It's just that the future security company has not yet arrived, and it still makes everyone's heart hang.

If it weren't for the fact that they were "protected" by members of the Iraqi security forces, these journalists would have been unable to stay.

On the bus, Robert was not in a hurry at all, for him, as long as he came to Iraq, when and where, it didn't matter, as long as the safety around him was the key.

With so many Iraqi troops nearby, he felt safe, so naturally he was not in a hurry.

However, the others are different, and there are people who complain almost every minute because they can't even get off the bus.

It's just that the Iraqi security forces are worried that if this is delayed for an hour, they may be surrounded by snipers with bad intentions.

Under the protection of car windows and curtains, snipers do not have good targets, and the car is naturally safer.

Just let a group of people stay in a confined environment. You can't use your mobile phone, and you can't walk around, which makes this group of big reporters very impatient.

Fortunately, the waiting time did not last on the highway. A large convoy slowly drove out of the toll booth and came to the edge of the checkpoint.

The arrival of a full 30 warrior assault vehicles made the Iraqi army on the high-speed exit a little restless.

If it weren't for the fact that these vehicles were painted with the logo of the future security company, they would have surrounded them long ago.

Because these 30 warrior assault vehicles are all heavy weapons, either small-caliber Getter machine guns or anti-tank missiles, or they are equipped with similar shoulder-mounted anti-aircraft missiles.

The main thing is: There are still traces of gunsmoke on these warrior assault vehicles, as if they have just come down from the battlefield.

The wing-like doors of the parked warrior assault vehicle opened to both sides, and sixty heavily armed soldiers jumped out of the car almost at the same time, and then formed a cordon.

When the surrounding personnel saw that two security guards were still wearing bandages, they all understood.

These people came on their way. I'm afraid there was an attack.

However, each family swept the snow in front of their own door. Here in Iraq, there is no curiosity, let alone asking what is going on.

It's just that the reporters on the bus didn't think so, opened the curtains, picked up their cameras, and pointed at the group of security personnel who had just arrived. It's a slam shot.

Fortunately, no one stopped them, even if the flashing lights were already seen by the group of security personnel, and they were all allowed to be photographed by the reporters.

Seeing that there was no intention of stopping, the reporters on the three buses were all polite.

Even Robert is the same. Because he had never seen those thirty quite sci-fi assault vehicles.

This is also the first time that I have been interested in something after coming to Iraq again.

At the moment of taking the photo, he even thought about the content of tomorrow's news material at the same time.

Not to mention anything else, just these thirty armored assault vehicles are big news in themselves, a big selling point.

And this is also the reason why all the reporters have taken pictures, which reporter can be sent to Iraq, which reporter is vegetarian.

It's just that there are three buses, and some people just glanced at the group of security personnel and vehicles outside, and continued to be in a daze with little interest.

There was no surprise on his face, and there was not the slightest interest.

The handover work was carried out very quickly, and it was still carried out quickly under various flashing lights.

However, just after the closing was completed, when the protection of the three buses was transferred to the future security company, three teams of security soldiers walked towards the buses.

After each team approaches a bus, the driver is asked to open the door.

The security guards then boarded the bus directly.

"The driver drives and stays in the center of our fleet." The security soldier who got into the car didn't seem to have any intention of leaving, and directly asked the driver to drive.

At this time, the thirty warrior assault vehicles outside were all turning around.

There were five security guards in each team on the bus, and when the bus started to hit the road, these five people stood on the aisle.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Iraq, we will take over the security and we will protect you until the end of the press conference, and from now on, we hope that you will cooperate with us. And then I hope you don't leave our sight if you're outside? ”

Five security guards in English, French, Russian, Chinese, and Arabic, informed the reporters in the car.

In the car, Robert didn't feel anything after listening to it, but someone was upset, a bearded short yellow man chattered, and Robert couldn't hear what he was saying.

And the five security guards in the car didn't seem to pay attention to him, of course, they probably didn't understand.

But then the man changed to English and shouted, "I protest, you are not protecting us, you are spying on us." ”

"Sir, we won't explain anything, if you want to go home safely, these two days, I hope you will obey all our arrangements for security. After all, among the people who don't want you to have an accident the most, in addition to your family, we are next. One of the security guards replied flatly.

Another security guard continued: "On our way to meet you, we were attacked, and although we were able to neutralize the attacker, there would be a second or third attack at any time. So, we shouldn't need to explain too much. ”

When the mustache heard this, he seemed to remember the color of the gunpowder smoke on the assault vehicle, and although his face was still very reluctant, he did not continue to speak.

The other reporters also remained quiet, after all, Iraq is as dangerous as a day trip to hell for a person of their status.

When it comes to his own life, there is naturally nothing to say, and the other party is also very reasonable.

However, compared to security issues, most reporters focused on the weapons and equipment of these five security personnel. At this moment, they realized that they had never seen these equipment before.

Seeing that all the reporters in the bus didn't seem to have anything to say, another security soldier spoke: "Now let's talk about the schedule, for the sake of safety, you will stay in our camp tonight." And in the company of us, ...... the event in the town of Marin, at seven o'clock in the evening, the chairman of our group has already arranged a welcome banquet, that is, today everyone has ten hours of free time until the banquet begins...... Tomorrow morning at eight o'clock, the press conference officially begins. (To be continued......)
